How much battery life do you get on a MacBook pro?

I have the new MacBook pro 16 and I’m getting 2.5 hours battery life with a moderate to low size project in cubase pro?
It’s the saemvattery life as the 2016 model, and i thought it would have got longer but its exactly the same - does this sound normal ?
